PARKED.COM - Official Thread!

[TOXX]

Hi,

Welcome to the OFFICIAL PARKED.COM thread!

 

[Name Trader]

I like Parked. I have a ragtaggle of names there but overall I get good results comparing to DomainSponsor. as with all parking services, not all names are better. I don't have any opinion about which does best.

parked.com is good for well-targeted names, especially american traffic. it's quite hard to get a 1-click lander, but if you do, it often pays well. if a domain gets >100% clickthrough, parked rocks, cause they pay for all clicks. i have one name that usually gets like 4 or 5 clicks per visitor, at $.32 each.

i'm convinced that if they gave me a 1-click lander for rides.org it would do well at parked, but since that doesn't seem to be happening i have it at nd and its earnings are way up. it really depends on the name.

Thanks guys...I'm actually with Parked.com for many of my domains also..Donny is 1st class service and overall my names are doing great so far...I just wanted to get an overall idea of how other domainers are faring with their service...especially that I don't hear too much about it on this forum.

Parked rocks for some of my .ca portfolio. They pay very well for US and Canadian traffic, and of course unlike some other parking companies they actually pay you for multiple clicks on your domain from the same user! Adult domains really take advantage of this at times.

a good support team as well!!

Yeh I like parked, I like the way they hang around the forums a lot and instead of just brushing off our ideas, actually put them into practice!

Good Job Donny!

 

[sierra]

yeah - prefer parked over others by far

 

[mysmallboutique]

cool.
i am using namedrive for 2 days now. and have earned 0.03 cents i guess.
wanted to join PARKED but then i couldnt because they dont accept gmails for account which is sad.
saying is to prevent fraud.

I really like Parked, but have a question - why does the amount in my account keep changing...there will be a lull in the activity and there will be no users for a small time, and when I go back to check, the value in my account has gone down - are they reviewing traffic for inappropriate clickthroughs, or what? never cared before, but since we're on the topic ...

 

[RareIQ]

I've experienced the same observation

I'm sure Donny will explain this much better than me
It's basically a matter of estimated clicks vs actual clicks, right Donny?

I would love to see some new landers at parked, I am not that fond of the pages... But, they pay the best, I find... I seem to get less clicks but the ppc makes up for it... I had a click the other day on a page that had to do with insurance and I got $4.06! That made my day....

I agree...if PARKED could get the tech guys from Trafficz, ParkingPanel, or NameDrive to come up with some nice new landers that would imho raise revenue even more!

 

[Donny]

First, all stats that are for today are an estimate. Tomorrow when our providers give us their final numbers we will combine our estimate and their numbers and come up with our final stats for the day. Our estimates include all hits, clicks, etc... Our providers may not always count everything though for many reasons.

Landers/Templates/Layouts have nothing to do with tech guys, it's all desginers. You ever seen a tech guy design a site before? We suck. We currenly have right over 4800 image combinations in our system and trying to come up with some way to actually get all of our previous work to still exist with additional landers is a little tricky. But they are coming, and maybe before you know it.

Time to get back to work.

I tried Parked and NameDrive for two months and I like NameDrive much better.
I couldnt get 1-click lander for most of my domains, and I made more with NameDrive.
I love NameDrive landers and the Sell/Contact option.

Sometimes I wonder how Donny does it to provide such EXCEPTIONAL service!!

P.S. Namedrive works well on low quality domains.
